What's Buzz-worthy: This is my second time trying these Dollar Tree packs for this release and I think I did pretty well with the Yellows -- half of them are variations and there are some notable names are among those and the variations. (FYI: I did more packs last time but didn't take a pic of this batch ... so you see more than six packs above.) Remember, these are just $1 a pack with the Yellow cards only found here, so a card like the Trout could end up being a tougher find down the line and get a few bucks more than you might expect. (It's sold for as much as $12 recently -- that's double what these packs cost.) ... As said last time, there are apparently no other inclusions beyond the standard stuff, variations and Yellow parallels except for cards for baseball entertainers The San Diego Chicken and Domingo Ayala. I'd suspect that these Yellows might have a lower print run that others out there so if you're somebody who chases all versions this might be one to look for sooner than later. I'd still hit hobby at the link above for a full array of stuff, but I will admit I like the look of the Yellows this time -- and the statistically tougher (to a degree) Rated Rookies/1986s might be the most interesting of all in that shade. I got one of each this time. You might not think of cardboard and Dollar Tree but if you're looking for something else then you might do a quick card check, too.
Product Grade: A-
Lot Grade: A+ (Trout yellow variation = win)
